Your child will have so much fun they won’t realize how much they are learning. They will love Barn School!
BARN SCHOOL
If your child is an animal lover, this is the kind of education that will give them a lifetime of useful knowledge and appreciation of horses and other companion animals.
Our unique teaching style provides your child with unforgettable lessons which are delivered in a fun, natural progression. The atmosphere is fun and interesting. There will be old-fashioned story telling, crafts, chores and horse trivia along with learning basic horse behavior and safety. Give the gift of “life on the farm” with hands-on experience interacting with our resident horses, dogs, cats and guineas on a fully operating horse farm in Dawsonville.
Barn School is geared for kids from ages 4 through 12 and consists of 5 days of 4 hour classes.
Cost per child is $36/per day or $180 per week.
Space is limited, reserve yours today for the week of your child’s summer break.
PASTURE BEDTIME....join us for a sleepover on the farm
Listen up all you barn bums
I bring good news
I have the remedy for
Those summertime blues
We’re having a sleep over
Right here at the farm
We’ll be spending the night
On the hay in the old barn
The horses, the dogs, the cats
The chickens and guineas too
Can’t wait to be spending
This special time with you
We’ll have a cookout
Down by the lake
We’ll tell horse stories
Until it is late
We’ll wind up the campfire
By making s’mores
Of course all of this is done
After doing the chores
We’ll walk back to the barn
By the light of the moon
We won’t think about leaving
Tomorrow at noon
When we get all tucked in
Our sleeping bags for the night
We’ll talk and sing songs
Until the first light
As you doze off
The last thing you’ll hear
Will be the horses’ soft nickers
in the pasture so near
There will be more surprises
So don’t hesitate or wait
Reserve your spot now
Before its too late

If your child has some basic riding lessons under the belt and/or has
attended our Barn School, it may be time to move to the next level this
summer for an action-packed, fun week of Riders Up.
Riders Up Week provides the experience of forming a bond with a horse on a
one-on-one basis. A horse is designated to each student and for that week,
responsibility of that horse lies totally with the child- giving a real life
view of horse ownership. Along with the daily chores of feeding, watering,
cleaning the stall and grooming, comes the intimate relationship between one
horse and one human. This, in turn, reflects on the responses while under
saddle and we will be having plenty of riding time daily to develop these
skills.
This is a fun and fascinating week specially designed for horse lovers. Ride
to music, on drill teams, play games on horseback and learn to communicate
with these amazing animals.
Dates:
June 6th to June 10th *SESSION FULL*
June 20th to June 24th *SESSION FULL*
July 5th to July 8th *SESSION FULL*
July 18th to July 22nd *SESSION FULL*
Time: 9 am to 1 pm
